Computational Methods in Engineering: Finite Difference, Finite Volume, Finite Element, and Dual Mesh Control Domain Methods

本書提供讀者選擇適當數值方法來解決各種工程問題所需的資訊。該書詳細介紹了有限元法（FEM）、有限體積法（FVM）以及一種重要的新數值方法，雙網格控制域方法（DMCDM）。

J. N. Reddy, the O'Donnell Foundation Chair IV Professor in J. Mike Walker '66 Department of Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University, is a highly-cited researcher, author of 25 textbooks and over 800 journal papers, and a leader in the applied mechanics field for more than 50 years. He is well-known worldwide for his significant contributions to the field of applied and computational mechanics through the authorship of widely used textbooks on mechanics of materials, continuum mechanics, linear and nonlinear finite element analyses, variational methods, numerical methods, and composite materials and structures. His pioneering works on the development of shear deformation theories of beams, plates, and shells (that bear his name in the literature as the Reddy third-order plate theory and the Reddy layerwise theory), nonlocal and non-classical continuum mechanics have had a major impact, and have led to new research developments and applications. Some of his ideas on shear deformation theories and penalty finite element models of fluid flows have been implemented into commercial finite element software like Abaqus, NISA, and HyperXtrude (Altair).
